IUG posted:They (or any other platform other than Facebook) need to retool and start advertising. I imagine some other company with a big enough push could steal off users easily from Twitter at this point. Yeah, I'm surprised some company hasn't made a concerted effort to pick off dissatisfied Twitter users yet. I know I'd sign up for a platform that's similar to Twitter, but without the Nazis/harassment.

Charliegrs posted:This is from a few pages back but isn't any kind of sexual relations with a minor considered rape? As in statutory rape? Remembering from the WaPi article, the crime Moore committed when he asked the girl to touch his penis was called something like "sexual contact with a minor" and carried a maximum sentence of 10 years jail time, though statute of limitations is up.

Twitter is interesting because of who else is on it. A nazi-free twitter alternative is worthless if you don't have the userbase that drives twitter. So the barrier to entry on twitter alternatives is very high.

Even the few who claim to be against him are far more against kicking off people who bring traffic to their tech bubble company.

As in statutory rape? statutory just means that the charge applies even if the victim was willing based on what i've read, if moore committed the same offence under current alabama law he could be charged with sexual abuse in the first degree, a misdemeanor which upgrades to a felony if there is another sexual offence commited within a year. he could also be charged with enticing a minor into a vehicle for sexual purposes, which is a felony. both of these charges are statutory

He's going to run on the ticket that Arnold couldn't due to being foreign born. I would wager the rock is republican because the people around him most of his life have been republican. when you hear the same fox news talking points from people you love and respect your world view aligns. he even performed a country music song with guitar bashing hillary in the wwe ring prior to elections. he is full blown republican. i lov his movies though

Not Myspace to Facebook level of ripe, but that general idea. I'm probably wrong as hell unfortunately. Speaking of, why does Twitter not have buttons where you can directly link/post a tweet onto Facebook? Simply because Facebook is a competing social medium, and one that is far more successful?

mutata posted:I thought the whole point of the age of consent law was that people below that age CAN'T consent? They did not accuse him of engaging in sex acts with them, to be specific. Just of inappropriate touching in clearly creepy circumstances. Like the Kevin Spacey/ young Anthony Rapp thing it's criminal sexual contact but not rape. Which again is indefensible on its face so its best not to give anyone an out with an inaccurate charge. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)
